What Can You Find in a Credit Report?

Stacey Williams — Wed, 05 May 2010 23:10:54 +0000

There are three major agencies that collect information from you and the establishments you conduct financial transactions with to come up with their versions of your credit report. As you might already know, the credit report is a helpful tool which creditors, banks, insurance companies and even employers use to asses whether you are responsible enough to handle finances. Other than that, what is in your credit report also makes up the variables that determine your credit score.

The next time you get denied for a loan or an apartment you are applying for, you should consider getting a copy of your own credit report and understand what it contains that affects the unfortunate event.

It is very common for people to come up with excuses to get the free annual credit report from each of the three credit reporting agencies. This is because the things in this document could really be too confusing to understand. But if you take a closer look at it, reading it is so much simpler than it seems.

Here are the information your credit report contains:

Personal Information

This part of the document contains your name, address and contact information. Previous addresses may also be included. Don’t be surprised if you find misspellings on your name as credit reporting agencies use these variations as links between your identity and the credit information. However, you should make sure that what you have is definitely yours.

Credit Summary

This portion of the report is where you will find the summary of all your credit accounts. You will find here the total number of accounts, the types, balances, number of current accounts, and delinquent accounts as well. If you have one or more of the following types of accounts, you will see them here: real estate, mortgages, revolving accounts (credit cards), installment accounts (loans), collection accounts and others. In here also is a summary of accounts that are open, closed, in public records and the number of inquiries made against your credit in the past two years.

Account History

This takes up most of the document. In here are the details of all your payments. It is important that you read through all the information to be sure that they are correct and accurate. You will see the creditor’s name, account number which could be shortened or scrambled for security purposes, account type, responsibility (individual, joint or authorized), monthly payment or the minimum amount you are required to pay on the account each month, date the account was opened, the last date the creditor updated the account with the bureau, credit limit or loan account, balance, past due, remarks from the credit, the status of the account (current, past due, charge-off), and the status since the time your account was opened.

Public Records

This part contains all information about bankruptcies, judgments, tax liens, state and country court records, and, in some states, overdue child support. These things stay on your credit report depending on the type of account.

Credit Inquiries

Finally, the last part of the document includes a list of all the parties, creditors and establishments which have accessed or requested for copies of your credit report. “Hard Inquiries” are what lenders receive when they get a copy of your report. These are list of lenders who requested to determine whether they should approve your applications or not. “Soft Inquiries” on the other hand are those creditors who take a copy of your report for promotional reasons.

CONTENTS STARTING ON THE INTERNET E-BAY INTERNET INFORMATION SCAMS PHISHING LIGHTSIDE DROP SHIP Setting up your business on the Internet can be a lucrative way to attract customers, expand your market and increase sales. However, it is your duty to check and learn the rules and regulations, areas of privacy, security, copyright, and taxation that come with doing business on line. Webmasters who are now on the web work overtime, researching, and building trust, which enables them to sell on the Internet. They know success does not come overnight. They have to work hard, be persistent, teachable, research. They have to make the effort and a little bit of cash helps. If you intend on making a living on the Internet start out part time. The failing rate on the Internet is over 94 percent, mostly because they buy into the MLM Marketer that promises all you have to do is join as a paid member. E-BAYYou should also consider selling via eBay. Thousands of persons are making a good living today selling on eBay. They give you a lot of support with free information, tools and resources. Really a great way to start on the Internet part-time, as you have control on the hours you want to spend to make it work. What I like about eBay is you can start by selling articles, products you have around your home, which you no longer have use for. The products you sell do not have to be new, but should be in good condition Protect yourself from spoof (fake) emails and Web sites. Take the Spoof Tutorial to learn about eBay Toolbar with Account Guard, which warns you when you are on a known spoof site.For more safe buying tips, please visit the e-bay Safety Centre INTERNET INFORMATION PUBLIC DOMAIN Many persons make a living by selling books, information that are in the Public Domain. There are many books, movies, newspapers that are in Public Domain. These are no longer cover by copyright and can be used by anyone, fully, or changed to suit the new author. For example every issue of any magazine, who’s copyright was not renewed in the U.S.A. between the years of 1923 and 1964 becomes Public Domain. Records show only about 1,500 ever renewed their copyrights. Every issue of any magazine whose copyright was not renewed in the 28th year of first publication is now Public Domain. It may be noted that in the U.S.A. I believe all newsletters, information flyers, plus other material produced by the Government can be copied. In Canada Government works are copyright by the Government and can’t be copied. SCAMS The Internet is growing in sophistication, from two dozen nations taking an “aggressive interest” in stealing our secrets to new virtual gangs pooling their talents to launch coordinated attacks and crimes. There are partnerships that are emerging—often globally—to turn back the rising tide of cyber crime. One of our partners is the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which has declared October its fifth annual National Cyber Security Awareness Month to help “educate the public on the shared responsibility of protecting cyberspace.” You can make a difference—and help protect your own systems at home and at the office—by taking these basic steps: Change your security passwords regularly, have a firewall in place on your computer, get the latest anti-virus software, and install current security patches for your computer’s operating system. Also, take time to visit the FBI page to learn more about how our cyber action teams, computer crimes task forces, Innocent Images program, and Internet Crime Complaint Center are playing vital roles in protecting cyberspace. Can you avoid getting caught by a scam artist working the web? Not always. But prudence pays. The FTC offers these tips to help you avoid getting caught by an offer that just may not click: Read the fine print and all relevant links. Fraudulent promoters sometimes bury the disclosures they’re not anxious to share by putting them in teeny-tiny type or in a place where you’re unlikely see them. Look for a privacy policy. If you don’t see one – or if you can’t understand it – consider taking your business elsewhere Be sceptical of any company that doesn’t clearly state its name, street address and telephone number. Check it out with the local Better Business Bureau, consumer protection office or state Attorney General. The FTC works for the consumer to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices. The FTC enters consumer complaints into the Consumer Sentinel Network, a secure online database and investigative tool used by hundreds of civil and criminal law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and abroad. PayPal works hard to prevent identity theft from happening on their site. PayPal offers educational tools geared to teaching users about security theft, including free Equifax credit alerts and a new PayPal Security code key. You can also go to my website where you will find over 3 years of Internet information in my archives. PHISHING Phishing still catches millions of persons who give out their personal information, believing the e-mail they received was from a bank, PayPal, taxation branch, or some other Government Department. Further, instead of typing in the URL supplied by the phisher they just clink on it. Just because the URL has the proper heading doesn’t mean it is going to a legit URL. In phishing they have it redirected if you click on the URL and they get your personal information. Further, consumers should not release personal information in response to unsolicited telephone calls. Providing your PII will compromise your identity! LIGHTSIDE Throw In The Towel The middle-aged boxer entered the ring for his daily practice. Both of his ears were bandaged. His coach asked him what happened. He explained, “I was ironing my shirt when the phone rang and I accidentally answered the phone with the iron!” “That explains the one ear, what happened to the other?” Asked the coach. The boxer replied, “They phoned back”. DROP SHIPPERSYou can get products to sell via eBay or/and your website by using the services of a drop shipper. A reliable drop shipper will not askyou for a fee. They will allow you to copy pictures of the productsthey sell. Prices are about half you would pay for retail.If you have a website they will allow you to move any listing on their site to yours. You set your price on the product/s you transfer. When an order comes in place the order, they will ship it out for you under your shipping label and not include any of their material.A good way to promote is join as an affiliate,(with a drop shipper), transfer a couple specials onto your site, with a link back to your affiliate page.The cost of setting up a web site is minimum. Subscribe to a few free Internet Newsletters, and join some free forums. You will find these listed in Google or Yahoo search. Forums are a great way to contribute ideas and post. Include your signature file at bottom. Great way to makes sales too.

The REAL Free Credit Report + www.IdentityTheft.info

Stacey Williams — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 22:24:38 +0000

How to obtain your free credit report from the three big credit bureaus. Be aware that many offers for “free credit reports” are not free. Most offers require you to sign up for additional services in order to obtain your “free” credit report. They then require you to cancel those additional services in order not to be billed on a recurring monthly basis. If you saw an ad on TV for a free credit report, think about how a big budget ad campaign could possibly offer freecreditreports. They can not. It is important to monitor your credit reports to make sure that there are no signs of identity theft. You should be looking for any lines of credit (credit cards, bank accounts, second mortgages) opened in your name which you did not sign up for. Visit www.www.identitytheft.info for more information about safeguarding yourself and your family.

Unused, 3rd credit card on credit report–Does this affect me?

Stacey Williams — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 10:57:51 +0000

When I was making plans to go to college, I decided to obtain a credit card. I heard two was safe, so I applied for two student cards from Citi. Everything went through, and I got my cards, but I decided to only keep one and not activate the other. I cut up the other one and disposed of it. Fast forward three years later (now), I have since applied and accepted what I thought was my ‘2nd’ Citi card. I have been using both, and never made late payments.

Out of curiosity I finally checked my free annual credit report. I notice I have 4 accounts in good standing…And I was kind of concerned. 2 accts are the CCs I’ve been using as stated, 1 is for my federal student loans, and the other is that card I never activated.

I heard that having 3 CCs could hurt credit, and I know I should cancel my unused card officially. I haven’t checked my actual credit score but I’m worried that this 3rd card affects me. Can someone clarify this for me please?

Make sure you carefully read the “terms of service” of the website where you’re getting your free annual credit report, as they all tend to be slightly different.

Some will charge a “fully refundable” $1 fee for a 7 day trial period. If you cancel anytime within the 7 days your $1 will be refunded and you will not be charged anything extra. The benefit is you receive immediate access to your credit reports from each of the 3 credit bureaus all from one website.

If you don’t want to be charged a membership fee ranging from $11.95/month to $29.95/month, simply get your reports then cancel your trial.

It’s your responsibility to ensure the data on your credit report is accurate. Even if your credit is bad, knowing what’s on your report is step #1 to repairing your credit.

Isn’t it worth a few minutes of your time to ensure you are protected from identity theft and fraud, that you obtain the mortgage you need, that you receive the lowest interest rate on vehicle and consumer purchases and that a potential employer or landlord sees accurate information of how you handle money?

Surely your peace of mind, your quality of life, and protecting all you’ve work so hard for is worth a little time and effort.
